Also, there urs more vn rlrtl-s. Kvery woman Is a different variety In fact, but two iu chief, I hose, who know how to dress ami llnn who ilon't. A geiitliMiinn l delliieil as one who is superior to Ilia dollies, but tu lady is known by lln-ni. Lady, therefore, Is tlie flrat ut the above-named two varle ties.. Now it does not follow that a My I one who is given to wearing irny gown and giddy garments, fine feat hers may muko fine birds, but aorow would look awkward with a peacock'a tall, The demure little lady with the pal complexion and dark limpid eyes and such a genernl ulr of sugar und aim pllolty knows that a plain gown block or gray Is just the thing she needs lo complete the picture, tier frock will be plnlu to piilnfulnssa on another girl but she kuowa what suits her. If she con only get one of those ehiick-me under-the-vhlii bonnets snd look up In quirlngly .from beneath its brim she knows tlia picture is peitfcct. By the way, what do,, she Inquire wnen sue gives this glance? It may rw as Mr. lillliert said, that she is wonder log what on earth this world can be. but the chances are that she is silently and innocently lniuirlngif she isn'tthe sweetest tiling in eight. There are women who should always wear light and feathery, airy-fairy puffy creations in costumes. These are usually the toll or medium-sized, wit lowy, blond type. Frills and furbelows are to them what fleecy clouda are ia a summer sky As for the tailnr-mnde girl, she ia all right in the daylight, but not after uara. Women are never vain. The one who atanda half un hour before a mirror la merely looking for a chance to Improve ii'ir appearance. Hlie is never satisfied with herself live minutes at s time, snd surely that, is not vnuitf. Women are merely Jealous or patronising or cov etous. There are some women who can tell a dear alater (bat her dreaa or bonnet ia a dream and then describ it aa a freak to another, but that comet from envy It all depends upon one's point of view J here may be a little deceit in it, but what ia more natural than deceit? , lly the way, I meant to have said that there an- lotsof young women vho are not demure brunettes, nor yet wil lowy blonds nor tailor-made girls, who areas well. They always keep the pie- tureHii mind. They l&ke liberties with Mme, Faahion, but they always atiidy for the picture, although' the use of paint is usually deplored. , Now, that Is what catches the average man. . lie does not go into the detaila of dreaa unless he ia employed in the -woman s department of a store. The average man looks for effects. - A big nai may catch his eye, but he generally ia critical aa to want is beneath it. A flaahy waist may stir his attention, but his remarks may not always be com mendatory. If the chief aim or woman ia to get a husband a knowledge of this is oi considerable moment. The average man thinka a slack dressed woman will be a slack-housekeeper, and he Is generally right. The woman who. leaves large rents in her gloves la apt to overlook his hose and Uncn. And there you are. aiut then It isn't the clothes that make the woman any more than the man. Now, there's the woman's wom antwo kinds of her, in fact, the one they pet and the one they worship. The flrat is of the confiding sort about whom everyone remarks: "Ian't she just the dearest little thing?" for ane nss a trick or smuggling her wav into me arrections or ail women that they prefer her company to a man's sometimes. The other is the kind that invites eon; fldence. She is usually of the lars-e minded type of whom. all women must stand in awe. They do it as women do almost, everything,' Intuitively. ; And tnen there Is the motherly woman. whom women worship more devotedly. ine average man when he meeta these typea has his well-defined ideas knocked askew. lie is even more vsirue than ever on the clothes question then. As I said before, he only (rets fi-enernl Impressions, but fhere are (imea when even his well-planned ideas fail him. Incidentally he has planned , them all by the last woman he has met. Of course, they are shattered when he meets the next ona. When he begins to think it over he finds, as a general rule, that the maxim stands true; there are only two kinds of women those who know how to dress and those whodon't. -Home Life.

The principle of growth in language, as in all else I variation. And when the early races felt that variation had been carried far enough within the limits of the vowel language, rich as it was in tone and melody, a new direction for growth was unconsciously soutrht It wos found by adding semivowels to the already existing vowels that is, by partially closing the lips, or bringing the tongue near the teeth, or palate, or throat, while the vowels were being spoken. This would give word like wawawa or yayaya, and the like, and so with other vowels. Let roe give a few words which still survive from this epoch, in Polynesian, which are rich in pure vowel words: ahl, nho, hau, hihl, ha, hae, wa, wal, which mean fire, light, wind, ray, breath, envy, expanse, water all elements or .elemental emotions.

Ooat lug with oarbollneum avenarlus, tha German wood presorver, will absolutely arrest decay from soil, climate and vormln. It hardens the fence posts, hop polas, house ppotts or other wooden fixtures treated and adds many years to their usefulness. , I hsve saved time, work and money by using this oompound and think no thrifty farmer should be without it. I see from articles published in the Oregonlan that they are employing oarbollneum avenariua tn Portland for paving blocks, the Madison street bridge timbers, etc., with excellent results. What It accomplishes for olty tolka on a large aoale, It will certainly accomplish for country noople on a small scale when used for domestlo purposes. . No expert knonledgo is required In using It. I have applied It with a brush tho same aa I would paint) or In treating fenoe posts or hop poles simply dipped them In a car bollneum avenarlus bath. I havo yet to record an unsuccessful trial of this preparation, and can cordially reoommond It as a sure preserver of wood for whatever purpose used, ? Carbollneum avenarlus aot only saves time und monoy by Its preservative qualities, but Its eoonomto merits aro augumonted by the low prloe at whloh It ls sold tn this territory. If others renp'-the benefit of my" expert'enoo this lottor will not .be wasted, but prove an absolute benefaction to our farming community. I nnderatnad this compound oan be procured at D. II.
